Eva is almost 5 years old now. I have much to fill in and many stories to tell. In 5 short years she has become an amazing little person. And yes, she still has so much to say! And she says it. And usually I am all ears.
Stories I want to remember - some of these are the ones that make you cringe...
She hits her friend and tells her "don't you cry."
She tries to sneak out of preschool so she can have a sleep over with a friend. Supposedly it was the other friend's idea.
She and two other friends steal three packages of Swedish Fish over three days. Hide the packages in the bottom of the garbage. Tells Daddy all the kids got some to eat and she put hers in her box. She gets caught and is told that she will have to pay for one of the packages with her piggy bank money. She hides it under her bed and states that she gave it to Hunter because he doesn't have one, and by the way, it isn't under the bed.
Rageful temper tantrums in which she throws everything on her dressers and from her book case in the middle of the room, screaming and yelling all the while.
On the sweeter side...
She has an extra package of gummy fruit that she didn't eat at lunch and gives it to a young girl at school.
She goes on her own, signs herself in at the child care at Maya Lin Parent's Info Night.
She loves to cook. Loves to get dirty in the garden.
She offers me some of the slushy she is sharing with her father after a particularly rough "battle" in which she has been crying and carrying on for an hour or so.
There are more. And I have some things written in a book that can be transferred to the Blog, which may be better than writing...
